Device Overview
Summary
The PM5336 ARROW 2488 device is a feature-rich, high capacity single-chip solution that enables optimized
compact MSPPs and highly integrated central cross-connects or high fan-in tributary cards for chassis-based
MSPPs, packet MSPPs, and ROADMs. The ARROW 2488 enables low chip count and power-ecient equipment
designs with unprecedented scalability and carrier-grade reliability. The ARROW 2488 consists of a SONET/SDH
network interface and framer with integrated SERDES including full section, line, and high-order path processors,
non-blocking memory-based high-order STS/AU and low-order VT/TU cross-connect, low-order VT/TU path
processors, and a large number of expansion interfaces (both ESSI serial links and a Parallel TelecomBus
interface). The SONET/SDH framer, high-order cross-connect, and low-order cross-connect support Message
Assisted Protection Switching (MAPSTM), a mechanism that allows standards-based protection switching without
software intervention.
Additional Features
Optimizes compact multi-port OC-48/STM-16 architectures, while allowing scalability to multi-port OC-
192/STM-64 applications
Integrates eld-proven CHESSTM intellectual property, reducing development cycles through reuse of
CHESS software base
Exceeds the requirement for 50 msec protection switching for up to 5376 tributaries using a fully
hardware-based APS algorithm (MAPS)
Two groups of four SONET/SDH interfaces, each supporting two modes of operation: Quad OC-12/3/STM-
4/1 mode (four interfaces operating at 622.08 Mbit/s or 155.52 Mbit/s, selectable per port) Single OC-
48/STM-16 mode (one interface operating at 2488.32 Mbit/s)
Quad OC-12/3/STM-4/1 mode (four interfaces operating at 622.08 Mbit/s or 155.52 Mbit/s, selectable per
port)
Single OC-48/STM-16 mode (one interface operating at 2488.32 Mbit/s)
CML compatible serial interfaces to connect to optical transceivers
Framing, high order pointer processing, alarm processing and overhead processing on all received
network streams
Dedicated pins to extract/reinsert B3/N1 path overhead bytes for Tandem Connection Monitoring
Per-framer connection ID message, allowing verication of high order path connectivity across single or
multistage fabrics
BLSR and MSSPRing protection switching with alarm processing, K-byte express, automatic payload
conguration, and other features

Floating delay management
One 32-bit or four 8-bit 77.76 MHz TelecomBus interfaces connecting to parallel TelecomBus framers and
mappers
Cross-connect implements HO MAPS algorithm to extract, lter and interpret line status code on a per STS-
1 basis
TOH byte insertion and extraction (99 TOH bytes per port)
Support for a set of active and standby conguration memory pages, permitting new switch settings to be
updated in one page while the TSE operates from the control settings of the other page
2.5 Gbit/s to/from 622 Mbit/s interleaving/de-interleaving
Muxing scheme enables dierent port asset allocations for dierent applications
Congurable, multi-channel, payload processor that aligns and monitors performance of the SONET virtual
tributaries (VTs) or the SDH tributary units (TUs)
Optionally monitors and terminates the path overhead of any legal mix of HO payloads in a SONET/SDH
stream
Remaps the incoming transport frame, payload frame and tributary multi-frame alignment on the Receive
side to the VT/TU Cross- Connect (WSE) frame and multi-frame alignments through low order pointer
processing
Drop/Add path of TUPP supports multiple SDH payload conversions
Memory-based, LO cross-connect capable of switching at VT/TU granularity
Accepts and switches SONET VT and SDH TU streams. All SONET virtual tributary types (VT1.5, VT2, VT3,
and VT6) All LO SDH tributary unit types (TU11, TU12, TU2, and TU3)
All SONET virtual tributary types (VT1.5, VT2, VT3, and VT6)
All LO SDH tributary unit types (TU11, TU12, TU2, and TU3)
Support for a set of active and standby conguration memory pages, permitting new switch settings to be
updated in one page while the WSE operates from the control settings of the other page
Cross connect implements the Low Order MAPS algorithm to extract, lter, and interpret the line status
code on a per VT/TU basis
